TXUX DPU |
| Description: |
Empty coal trains seem to get DPU power on a regular basis; it wasnt always a sure thing. It does help get a well lit photo when shooting a northbound. This interesting set was trailing an empty TXUX train at Gravette |

DPU and a water tower |
| Description: |
The Siloam water tower in town is in good proximity to the tracks. Too bad the name of the town doesnt face the tracks. The DPU, a KCSM/KCS duo, likely added at Pittsburg-and ahead of the BNSF unit that came with the train from Wyoming-pushes for now, but will shortly be holding back the 131 cars as it drops the 1.5% into Watts |

And away |
| Description: |
The DPU recedes south as the train is now completely past me. Time to head home, drain and rinse the tank, and refill for our next adventure. |
